Cleaning the appliance

Clean the appliance after each use once it has cooled
down. Remove liquids that have boiled over or spilled
immediately and do not allow any food remains to burn
on.
Dry the burners thoroughly after cleaning. Only operate
the appliance when the burners are dry. Damp burners
can cause ignition problems and/or an unstable flame.
During assembly, make sure that the burner parts (catch
tappets) are in the correct position. All parts must be
straight.
